Whether it was rewarding Jimmy Carter for criticizing the Iraq War or supporting Al Gore in his crusade against global warming, the Norwegian Parliament - which chooses the winners of the Nobel Peace Prize - has sought to use the award as a political tool to influence American politic s.

On this as on every issue there’s only one question in my mind:

I am beginning to question the motives of the so-called Republicans we have in government.
If you stop and think about it, what motivation do they have to buck the tide?
The only thing I can think of is, moral courage, which requires a moral compass.

You are absolutely right. McCain is the template of the new enfeebled and feeble-minded Republican Party. They spend more time criticizing Glenn Beck than they do the Socialist Takeover of America.
A most excellent column by Morris.
